🗑
methyldopa side effects (2)   sedation, positive Coombs test  
🗑
hexamethonium side effects (4)   severe orthostatic hypotension, blurred vision, constipation, sexual dysfunction  
🗑
reserpine side effects (4)   sedation, depression, nasal stuffiness, diarrhea  
🗑
guanethidine side effects (4)   orthostatic/exercise hypotension, sexual dysfunction, diarrhea  
🗑
prazosin side effects (3)   1st-dose orthostatic hypotensoin, dizziness, headache  
🗑
beta-blocker major side effects (6)   asthma, impotence, sleep problems, bradycardia, CHF, AV block  
🗑
hydralazine side effects (4)   lupus like syndrome, reflex tachycardia, angina, salt retention  
🗑
minoxidil side effets (5)   hair, pericardial effusion, reflex tachycardia, angina, salt retention  
🗑
vasodilator: calcium blocker side effects (3)   flushing, constipation, nausea  
🗑
nitroprusside major side efect   cyanide toxicity  
🗑

🗑
ARB side effect (losartan)   fetal renal toxicity, hyperkalemia  
🗑
two drugs that cause hyperkalemia   losartan and captopril  
🗑
what do you have to do with hydralazine and minoxidil?   use beta blockers to treat reflex tachy, diuretic to block salt retention  
🗑
mechanism of hydralazine   increase cGMP, smooth muscle relaxation, vasodilation, afterload reduction
